60. Helping Our Children with Grief & Loss with Guest, Valerie Steven Rhodes
Manage episode 380051426 series 3012628
“If a child is old enough to love, they are old enough to grieve.”
“Our grief is an equal measure to our love.”
Have you ever thought about your children’s behaviors being affected by grief or loss? Loss of a friendship, a bad grade on a test, a loss of a pet, a big move, a family miscarriage, parents divorcing, or the loss of a loved one…these are all things that can truly bother a child yet they don’t have the words or tools to vocalize. In this episode, Valerie Rhodes does an incredible job of giving us some tools and shining some light on ways to cope with grief.
Valerie Rhodes is a grief counselor, author, speaker, workshop instructor, and Christian Grief Counseling, LLC owner. She earned her BA in Management of Human Resources from MidAmerica Nazarene University in Kansas. All continuing education focuses on dying, death, grief, loss, and disaster, with hope for recovery, rescue, and restoration.
As a long-term cancer survivor and then caregiver for a cancer survivor, Valerie has continued to serve others with chronic illness and death-related issues. She offers grief support workshops and teaches skills and tools to help others cope with their personal grief and losses. With her biblical worldview and as a trained member of the Overland Park, KS, FEMA Community Emergency Response Team, she specializes in helping others deal with diverse grief and disaster.
When our children are dealing with so many things at once, it feels like their whole world is falling apart. But can we learn to ask the right questions and help them get to the answer of “what is really bothering them the most?”
